[American Thinker] According to Fox News, Nexus Services Inc. is funding the lawsuits through a civil rights law firm called Nexus Derechos Humanos (Human Rights) Attorneys Inc.
Now, without getting into the legal reasoning of the case, which is aptly exposed by Carlson as well as John Hinderaker of Power Line here, what's vivid about the whole thing is how troubled the firm itself seems to be.
Last April, the Washington Post did a long investigative piece on this same group, because their bail bond agency branch, called 'Libre,' was accused in three states of "preying" on illegal immigrants. According to the Post:
Investigations into a Virginia-based company accused of preying on detained undocumented immigrants have expanded.
Libre by Nexus, an immigration bond services company, is the subject of probes by the attorneys general of Virginia, New York and Washington state, according to state and federal court records.
The previously unreported investigations come on top of a federal probe by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB), made public in October.
In a statement, Libre’s parent company, Nexus Services, acknowledged two of the state investigations and did not deny the third.
"Nexus . . . continues to cooperate with responsible inquiries into our business model and the life-affirming work we do every day to support immigrants," CEO Mike Donovan said.
Wow. Just wow.
